Hiring past Auburn Coordinators to compete against Saban

Auburn fans, how do you feel about this? Alabama brings in the best college coach of All-Time. Your next 2 hires to compete with that (former assistant coaches at Auburn):

1. Former Auburn DC from last undefeated team. Former DC had a 5-19 record as head coach and had lost 10 straight games.

2. Former Auburn OC from last undefeated team. Former DC has been a head coach for one season, at Arkansas State, in the Sun Belt Conference. He did post an impressive 9-3 record this year, though.

I would be absolutely pissed if LSU hired two former LSU coordinators in a row to try to be our head coach. Especially if one of them had one year experience and the other was a proven loser as a HC. Do you really expect to compete with Bama for recruits and on the football field by hiring such unproven coaches that happen to have ties to Auburn football?

1. LSU and Auburn are in different places right now. Saban had built LSU up to where they didn't have to hire a coordinator.

2. Auburn has actually hired two head coaches. As you said, both Chizik and Gus were head coaches immediately before going to Auburn. To call them "former coordinators" is kind of dumb, considering just about every head coach is a "former coordinator."

I don't really have a beef. I'm glad Auburn didn't go out and hire a proven head coach. I just think it is odd that they would hire two former coaches in a row. You can't really be okay with that, huh?
